Positive impacts of removing feral buffalo

Mr Lawrence said he wanted the show to convey some of the positive impacts of removing feral buffalo from the Top End.

"I think it is important for people to realise that there are a number of different reasons this industry viable and is a good thing," he said.

"Not only is it employing Territorians, young guys who may have to move into the city, but it is also saving the environment.

"The buffalo and wild cattle … destroy the land the land they are on if they are not kept to appropriate numbers.

"In the past we have seen rangers and the government have to go out and cull a lot of the animals, and they are shot dead where they stand and left to rot.

"So the fact that these guys are going out there and it is two minutes of adrenaline and excitement [chasing the animal] but once they have been caught they are calm and it is actually the most humane way for things to be done."
